Presentation transcript:

Chemosense: Smell and Taste

Smell- -sensed by chemoreceptors in the olfactory epithelium (found at the TOP of nasal cavity) -smell chemoreceptors are unique nerve cells because they are constantly replaced -odorants are dissolved in moist mucous membrane before they are smelled. We have about 350 different types of odor receptors!

-olfactory receptors pass through the cribiform plate of the skull to the olfactory bulb of the brain lying directly above. -odor receptors fatigue quickly so we “get used” to smells -smells interpreted in limbic system of brain (controls mood and is closely related to memories)

Taste- -The taste buds respond to gustatory (taste) info. -each taste bud contains 50-125 gustatory cells -they are found on the papillae (tiny bumps) on tongue

-chemicals must dissolve in saliva before they bind to receptors on taste buds and are tasted

-each taste bud responds to one of 4 (or 5?) primary tastes: -Bitter -Sour -Sweet -Salty -Umami (meaty)

The 5 tastes: Sweet = simple sugars Sour = acids (unripe fruit?) Bitter = base (poison) Salty = salts Umami (savory) = amino acids (glutamic acid)

no TASTE MAP - There is NO SUCH THING as a taste map!!! Different tastes can be sensed in all areas of the tongue. (though not the same for all people)

-Taste is interpreted in parietal lobe of cerebral cortex -Facial & Glossopharyngeal nerves carry taste info
